I don't know what the odds were at the start of the season but Jose Mourinho has to be a lock for the first manager to depart his club this season. Man United look a mess, Midfielder playing at Centre Back when he has Centre Backs he's bought on the bench. Only a matter of time before he departs.


I've stopped watching Football until A) We get a good Manager or B) We start playing actual Football

Chelsea seem pretty solid so far, but they need to improve their defense and their finishing if they want to be able to beat Man City, Liverpool, or Tottenham.

Yeah I agree, they're still getting used to playing a back four. Against Arsenal they were horribly exposed in the inside right and left channels that they were used to covering in a back three. Like, in a back three, once the wing-back is beaten on the inside, the right or left-sided centre-back can come across and then the wing-back makes his defensive run more centrally. You deal with that kind of movement differently in a back four, usually the full-back sits deeper and it's the right or left-sided central midfielder that's getting beaten. Arsenal played this same overlap all game, they pulled the full-back out (so he wasn't as deep) and then played the ball into the space left behind him. It all comes with time and practice. With the midfield options and attacking players at their disposal, Chelsea should make the top four with no difficulty at all.
